This is a great looking and great driving car. We believe we are the third owner. We have owned the car for 23 years and have always garaged it and kept it well maintained. The original color of the body was Dusk Rose. A prior owner had painted the body red and the hardtop white. Since we have owned the car, we have repainted it the same colors as existed when we bought it, replaced the dashboard, completely overhauled the brakes and all lines, replaced the porthole chrome and replaced the hardtop weather strips. We believe the car, with the exception of the paint, is original and the same as when it was assembled at the Dearborn, MI plant in November 1957.
We are amazed at how easily the car starts and how smoothly it runs. We only put perhaps 200 miles on the car each year, and it ususally is to take the grandkids to the drive in for a milk shake.
There are a few, very few, paint chips on the body, and there is a dime sized rust bump on the driver side rocker panel. Both items could be inexpensively repaired. Please check out the pictures, it really is in good shape. I have included a bunch of pictures and have a lot more. If there is something you would like me to photograph and send to you, please ask.
All tires, including the spare are new-have less than 200 miles on them.
The car is located in Federal Way, Wa which is 15 miles south of Seattle. We are very close the to SeaTac airport, so please come out and inspect the car, take a test drive and then drive it to its new home.

2015 Ford F-150 enters production
Wed, 12 Nov 2014Ford has given the F-150 a dramatic makeover for 2015, switching to an aluminum body that helps reduce weight by about 700 pounds. Because the truck is dramatically different, Ford also had to change the way it makes the F-150, so we went inside its sprawling factory in Dearborn, MI, this week to see the Blue Oval's new manufacturing techniques in action.
The company has added 850 jobs at the site and upgraded its stamping and tool and die facilities. The body shop is also modernized, and it has been fitted with 500 new robots that join the structures together. The first 2015 F-150 rolled off the line on Tuesday, and the trucks will begin arriving in dealerships in December. Get a closer look at the F-150's unique assembly process in our video.
2015 Ford Mustang revs it up at Cars & Coffee
Mon, 09 Dec 2013Just because the new 2015 Ford Mustang has officially been released, you didn't think that would be the end of the matter - did you? Of course not. There'll still be plenty of rumors, reports and video footage to bring you. Like this, the first non-official footage of the new pony car in the wild.
Shot by YouTube user SotA1080 and dug up by our friends at CarBuzz, this clip shows the new Mustang posing for photos (alongside other Mustangs) and starting up its engine at the most recent gathering of Cars & Coffee in Irvine, CA. And this being the GT model, it's not packing the V6 or the turbo four, but the red-blooded 5.0-liter V8 that tells us and enthusiasts worldwide that the new Mustang has not lost its way. Scroll on down to watch the footage for yourself.
Ford S-Max Concept proves minivans aren't always minivans [w/video]
Tue, 10 Sep 2013Ford's latest don't-call-it-a-minivan is called the S-Max Concept, and it's a looker. As you can see, the conceptual overgrown hatch makes good use of Ford's latest design language, especially at the very front of the S-Max, which bears a striking resemblance to production models that include the Focus, C-Max and Fusion.
Powering the S-Max Concept is a 1.5-liter EcoBoost engine, and while Ford doesn't actually list power figures for the concept, previous estimates put the mill at 133 kW of power (about 178 horsepower) and 240 Nm of torque (about 177 pound-feet). Inside, there's room for seven passengers and at least some of their luggage.
As you'd expect, the S-Max is loaded up with all of Ford's latest infotainment technology, including Sync and MyFordTouch. More interestingly, there are also onboard heart and blood glucose monitors that we doubt will be seeing the light of production anytime soon. On that topic, don't expect to see any S-Max-shaped vehicles hitting the US market from Ford, either. Scroll down below for the press release, but not before checking out the high-res image gallery above.
